addPage not defined

[ikit]

Hi, I'm stuck with a weird error...
I don't understand, because the addPage() seems to be a well documented method...

Issue or Feature

Do not compile due to the following error:

Property 'addPage' does not exists on type 'NodeCanvasRenderingContext2D'.

Note that I try to put the addPage() on the canvas object, then the project compile, but at the runtime, I got the following error:

canvas.addPage is not a function

Steps to Reproduce

import { createCanvas } from "canvas";

const canvas = createCanvas(200, 200, "pdf");
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');

for (let i=0; i<4; i++) {
    ctx.fillText("test " + i, 5, 40*i);
    ctx.addPage();
}

Your Environment

• canvas 2.6.1 installed from npm
• node 12 on Windows 10
• typscript project

Hrm, I can't reproduce that.

> const {createCanvas} = require("canvas")
> const canvas = createCanvas(200, 200, "pdf");
> const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d")
> ctx.addPage()
> ctx.addPage
[Function: addPage]

Since you're using Typescript, note that #1509 corrected an error in the typings: addPage was declared on the canvas instance instead of the context.

Can you inspect the properties of your ctx instance?

ok thanks, it's the same problem that the #1509

Just ran into this myself; is there another anticipated release coming any time soon?
